Visual Studio templates to generate C# and VB .NET Revit add-ins

Visual Studio Revit Add-in Templates

The Visual Studio Revit add-in wizards provide Visual Studio templates for generating C# and VB .NET Revit add-ins.

They enable the instantaneous and automatic generation, installation and debugging of a new Revit add-in skeleton with one single click.

Ample documentation is provided in The Building Coder topic group on Visual Studio Revit add-in templates.

Installation

Installation can be accomplished by cloning this repository and running the installer batch file install.bat as described in The Building Coder discussion of the Revit Add-In Wizards on GitHub and Installer.

install.bat [Visual Studio Year - 2022, 2019, 2017, 2015]

User Project Template Location

Ensure that the destination path specified in install.bat matches your user project template location. You can change the known location for user templates in Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Locations, cf., how to locate and organize project and item templates:

Alternatives

Several alternative Revit add-in templates have been published.

They are all more complex and full-fledged than this minimalistic one, taking advantage of .NET configuration functionality, providing support for multiple Revit releases, WPF, languages, build systems, installers, Autodesk AppStore support, etc.

Here are some of them:

Revit2017AddInTemplateSet by Andrey Bushman; for a full discussion of that and comparison of the two, please refer to the article on new Visual Studio templates for Revit add-ins
Revit2018AddInTemplateSet
Multi-Version Revit Add-In Template by Yaroslav Zhmayev
Revit WPF Template by Petr Mitev
Hellpie dotnet Revit add-in template by Diego Rossi
